Non-identification with body-mind gives way to versatility
Thoughts become tools, feelings become playthings,
The personality becomes an actor to be directed by the silent, serene master
Knowing oneself to be unbound, there is no more fear of confinement
Realizing that the momentum of life is benevolent, there is no more confusion as to its purpose
Understanding that evolution starts from scratch, there is no more need to condemn or persecute those clinging to the scratchiness
Within these parameters, the pure spring of creative stillness bubbles up like a fountain
Wishing to touch Herself, Himself, Itself
as a baby boy yearns to learn the intricacies of the world
So a spring-fed mechanism of fluid dynamics flows through Being:
a river brushing against banks of trees
fingers massaging curls of hair
echoes of animals resounding off canyon walls
ancestors carving the new shape of their descendants
And, if we miss this chance, we will get another
But we might as well maximize the non-profit yield of interdependent abundance:
a squirrel bumbling in a bed of acorns
a butterfly drunk on the sap it sucked off a redwood
an eagle soaring until it rests in the nest of the canopy
what else can we say?
little
or
much
such
and
such
quiet now, the mouse is sleeping. |
